摘要

A mechanism for dewatering a water-soaked fibre mat in sections by a dewatering plate press which can be moved on track rails has an endless screen belt to carry the fibre mat between top and bottom press parts. The stationary frames between which the press moves are joined by guide rails on which an endless batten grate band supports the screen belt. These guide rails are adjustable in height and are at the level of the batten grate band when the dewatering plate press moves forward. During the return movement of the press, they can be lifted above the level of the static bottom press parts. ADVANTAGE - This eliminates the troublesome wear due to the contact between the bottom press plate and an intermediate. sealing band on which the batten grate band rests.
